Farley "Tony" Peeples, born November 8, 1955 was the middle child of seven children. He was born to two awesome parents, Andy and Essie Peeples who preceded him in death.
At a young age Tony was taken to church with his Grandmother "Big Mama Effie" and received a miracle from God with the healing of a large tumor that was on his arm. It was then that Tony professed his hope in Christ.
Tony lived a quiet and rather secluded life but had many many childhood friends. Tony graduated from DeVry Institute in Electronics and served in the US ARMY as an Engineer making bombs and as a Medic, yes he was smart!
Tony was a "giver" in this life and loved his neices, "Fay and Kris, bad girl Lisha, Rickia, and all them other little bad kids" as he would lovingly say about all his neices and nephews alike.
Tony made his transition from this life into eternity on Wednesday, February 27, 2013 in the comfort of his brothers at Franciscan St. James Health in Olympia Fields, Ill.
He leaves to "Celebrate his Life" four brothers and one sister, Andrew (Sharon) Peeples, Ricky (Teresa) Peeples, James Peeples, Mark (Jackie) Peeples, and Mary Ann Peterson all of Chicago Il. His oldest sister Victoria Peeples who preceded him in death had a son, Victor Peeples who was also raised by Andy and Essie. He also leaves to cherish his memory a host of aunts and uncles, neices and nephews, great neices and nephews and great great neices and nephews!!
Tony will surely be missed by his siblings and family but we praise God that there will be no more suffering, just howdy howdys and never good byes! God Bless you our brother, uncle, nephew and friend! We love you!!!!
